Bath re-enamelling in New Aberdeen, done in place
Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. Our technicians work on cast iron baths, Victorian roll-tops and pressed steel baths, and the jobs we see most are a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean and an outdated colour you’d like to change.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee.

For landlords and businesses
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Aberdeen and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
How to look after the repair
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
The first few days matter most: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
Questions from New Aberdeen
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole bath and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
Typically, yes. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Mention it when you send pictures.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Will the bath be moved?
Not at all. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room protected and ventilated.
Repairs by material
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.

What affects the price in New Aberdeen

- Access to the area
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material
We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for New Aberdeen. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Quotes from your pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Where you are, by postcode
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:
- A bath split right through the body

Repair or replace in New Aberdeen?
Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. Otherwise, resurfacing normally wins. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
